Cautions
• Panoramas are created from multiple frames. The
camera may in some cases be unable to stitch the
frames together perfectly.
• The desired results may not be achieved with mov-
ing subjects, subjects close to the camera, unvarying
subjects such as the sky or a field of grass, subjects
that are in constant motion, such as waves and wa-
terfalls, or subjects that undergo marked changes in
brightness. Panoramas may be blurred if the subject
is poorly lit.
For Best Results
For best results, be careful not to tilt the camera back-
ward or forward or to either side and try not to move
the camera while

circle.

panorama, panoramas may print with their edges
cropped out or with wide margins at the top and
bottom or at both sides.
